Fi Technical

Hey Scott, I tried emailing you about some recones I need. I tried the [email protected] but I got a delivery failure notification today. Does your email no longer work? Please let me know how I can get in contact with you.

Lookin for info on the q18, you guys recommend 4 to 8 cubes for the 18 sealed. With ~1kw each would 5 cubes each be acceptable? I'm looking for them to carry into the upper range a little more so I'm thinking a smaller box would fit that. Toying with the idea of doing 3 of them sealed in my ext cab truck on a saz3000 for a bassrace/daily ground pounding application. I'm currently running an hdc318 on 2200w and it gets downright loud and I like the upper end response as well as the lows it gets, just looking to try something different. Always wanted to try a large sealed application that got loud both bottom and top end, just not sure if the q18 will do it, which is …

ok, well my box broke today, so now i have even more incentive to build a new one. this time i plan on using aero ports that way i can change it out from a daily driver to spl... im not sure how big i want to build it this time, what would be the pros/cons of building a bigger box, say around 5 cubes compared to something closer to 4.

Scott at fi car audioi sent me this enclosure.. http://yfrog.com/eq23cuft33hzj Is this a good enclosure? Is it going to be very loud and clear?

Ok I'm planning to run a 15" BL in my trunk and was wondering what box idea would be louder. 1. A regular ported box facing the rear. 2. Wall off the trunk and have the sub facing the cabin in a ported box, with this setup i could make the install look nice with the box i would do the plexiglass with mirror inside of it with some L.E.D. lights in it or something to see when you pop open the trunk with the amps on the floor with a false floor, itd look real nice but it gotta sound good too...would that way be louder??? and my seat fold down if that has any factor...thanks

I am planning on buying a BL 12" sub with all the trimmings for xmas... my mom recently bought me a BXI1606D Hifonics amp.... will this be too much power for this sub? i really hope not! =( any input would really help thanks in advance!!

This is tuned to 36hz THIS is tuned to 32hz The 3 round ports are 6inch by 16.75L

I don't compete and would like a SQ/LOUD SOUND QUALITY setup and am having the hardest time designing a box to use. Obviously Fi recommends a sealed enclosure and that's what I was going to do originally until I started playing around in WinISD. Now I'm completely unsure so I figured I'd ask you guys. How do you guys think a 12" Fi Q would sound in a 2.3 cu ft enclosure tuned to 24-25hz as opposed to a 1.3 cu ft sealed enclosure? I can't upload the WinISD output on my current connection but I will after midnight when I get home.

hello, If anyone can tell me the port length for a 15inch fully loaded BTL that would be great. they took down the specs for the new woofer i guess, making it unable for me to read it. So if anyone can tell me all the port information for a 15inch btl i would really appreciate it. Thank you

Hello, I need help on the port volume. I have a 15" bl with a 1500.1 kicker mono amp and Will be building a 4 cubic foot box and would like it tuned to like 35 hz. I don't understand what 12-16 square inches per cubic foot means in the recomendations. I have always used/seen cubic inches for a port valume. so if someone could "please" help me out asap that would be great. Thanks alot. Farris.

I'm going to order four 10 " Q's to be mounted sealed each connected to it's own Alpine PDX 1.1000 , ( all 4 were benched at 1200 RMS ) , my question is BP power or no BP power , i have seen posts where they were said to perform wonderfully under 1000 watts , and many more that stated they could take more , so i'm confused as to if i should BP them or nt please answer , thank you

Whats a good port length for the BTL as a daily driver tuned around the recommended 32 hz and 14in^2 per cube? 2000rms power. Enclosure will be glassed into the side of my trunk and I have around 4600in^3 before any displacements to work with. So should be around 2cuft after. Trying to see if I can make a ported enclosure work or not. Thanks!

Hey Scott, Les here i been trying to get in touch with you for a while now about the recone kits. Please get back to me ASAP i need them fast

I plan on ordering a BL12 and am not sure on what amp to get. I was looking at the Alpine PDX 1.1000 for one BL12. Should that do that job or is it not enough watts?

is my rockford fosgate t20001bd at a 2 ohm load too much for my 2 q18 d2's? its a 2 ohm load at 1600wrms. thanks!

Does the recone kit come with the glue if not then what type do i need?

hey guys .. im looking at building my own enclosure for my BTL 18" and was wondering whats the minimum cubic feet as i have a limited area to work with Thanks

Does the Fi btl ufo single slug motor(the solid slug not the pie) require the risers hwne reconing? i only have 6 can't find another set,so i can do 3 per sub(i have 2 mags and am reconing both subs) Do I need the risers? its for daily. if you know where i can get some risers let me know(if needed)

Where can I find some box cutouts for the old school black fiday x series 12". Can I use the new X cut outs or can I use the ssa dcon 12 cut outs. the dcons look like they are the same as the black fiday 12".

Hey i just wanted to know what would be a good enclosure for SPL with 2 12" BTLs.... I Drive a 2003 Tiburon GT and do wanna be able to listen to music occasionally. Thanks for the help

Just currious if the new 12" BTL would be better suited in 2.5 or 3 cubic feet? Would tuning at 32 work or would I be better off tuning higher? Any info would be appreciated

What are the differences if both would be ran on a sundown saz 1500? I have a fully loaded bl now and it's not as loud as I expected. Would the 2 12 in ssd subs be louder?

what is the recommended port area for ssd's? box will be around 5 cubes tuned to around 33hz. 1 port 5" wide 20.75" long would give me 75 square inches. and 4.5" wide 17.25" long is 67.5. is one better that the other? and y? also just curious how much does a 12" SSD weigh and a 12" Q?

Hey im new to the forum and new to Fi. I have been looking around to put a new system in my car and decided on Fi. I plan on purchasing 2 10' SSD with the copper coil and i was wondering if yall had any suggestions on an amp. I was looking at A planet audio RXD-1400 that puts out about 1400 rms and 1900 peak but i wasnt sure. Any help would be great thanks.

I need some 2 cents on my new setup which will be 2 Fi Bl 12's fully loaded. im going to have 2 1700 rms watt amps total 3400rms. i have a 125 amp alternater and a redtop battery. i was wanting to keep my stock alternater for low funds reasons. for now what can i use to power the subs? could more batterys work for now?
